Eddy Pineiro's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro is coming off a tough outing during the Philadelphia Eagles last week. Pineiro made his lone field goal attempt and made 1-of-2 extra point attempts in the loss. The 29-year-old has now missed a week in two straight weeks. The Panthers offense finally coming alive has given Pineiro more streaming appeal lately. However, he remains a risky streaming choice ahead of the Week 15 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Pineiro has three misses over the last two games, so fantasy managers should look elsewhere for help ahead of Week 15.

Carolina Panthers placekicker Eddy Pineiro had his most productive outing of the season against the Kansas City Chiefs. The veteran knocked through four field goal attemptsall from within 40 yardsalong with his sole extra point. It's been a struggle this year for Pineiro despite missing only one field goal attempt. The Panthers' offense has been anemic for large stretches of the season, rendering his job anemic by association. However, second-year quarterback Bryce Young has led some productive outings recently, bringing Pineiro back to fantasy relevance. Facing a lackluster Tampa Bay defense in Week 13 could bolster some scoring opportunities, putting Pineiro on the streaming radar in deep leagues.

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro (knee) is active on Sunday for the Week 12 contest against the visiting Kansas City Chiefs. Pineiro apparently injured his left knee while celebrating after making the game-winning kick in Germany in the overtime victory over the New York Giants, but he had last week's bye to rest up and is good to go this weekend. The 29-year-old should be avoided for fantasy purposes, though, in Carolina's inconsistent offense as they take on an underrated Chiefs defense. Pineiro has only attempted 13 field goals (successful on 12) on the year and has made all 17 of his extra-point opportunities. The Chiefs defense has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to the kicking position this year, and Pineiro just hasn't had enough volume in the kicking game to warrant fantasy attention.
